In 1955, trumpeter Ruby Braff recorded two duet albums with the sensitive
pianist Ellis Larkins and both projects were very well-received. This CD
reissue brings back the second session in which they perform a dozen songs
written by Rodgers & Hart. The passionate Braff and Larkins (a masterful
accompanist) work quite well together. Although the emphasis is on ballads,
there are a few hotter pieces that find Braff pushing Larkins a bit. Highlights
include "Mountain Greenery," "Blue Moon," "My Romance"
and "You Took Advantage of Me"
